Abstract

This article analyses the attitudes of various courts towards blockchain electronic evidence and the inconsistent conclusions on its authenticity in China’s judicial practice. The purpose of this article is to explore the rules for determining the authenticity of blockchain electronic evidence that are suitable for China’s reality. This article adopts a qualitative approach to analyse the rules for determining the authenticity of blockchain electronic evidence in China, and identifies the problems faced when reviewing the authenticity of blockchain electronic evidence in Chinese judicial practice. Finally, by comparing and learning from the U.S. rules for determining the authenticity of blockchain electronic evidence, this article puts forward proposals for establishing the best evidence rule and the hearsay rule for blockchain electronic evidence, refining the rules for judicial presumptions as well as explicitly reviewing the authenticity of the electronic evidence prior to uploading it to the blockchain.

Abstract

Indonesia’s agricultural sector remains dominated by traditional rice farming that contributes modestly to GDP, while farmers face rising risks of crop failure due to climate change and other external factors. This condition reveals a gap between the legal objective of farmer protection and empowerment and the practical effectiveness of crop insurance through the Rice Farming Insurance Program (Asuransi Usaha Tani Padi/AUTP). This article examines whether AUTP constitutes a legally valid general insurance contract under Indonesian civil and commercial law and assesses its effectiveness as a protection mechanism for rice farmers. Using a normative juridical method based on secondary data, the study applies statutory, conceptual, and case approaches to analyze AUTP regulations in relation to empirical findings from prior research. The results indicate that AUTP fulfills the essential elements of loss insurance and qualifies as an innominate contract under Article 1319 of the Civil Code in conjunction with Articles 246 and 247 of the Commercial Code. However, its practical effectiveness remains limited due to internal constraints, including low insurance literacy, premium affordability, and participation rates, as well as external constraints related to institutional capacity, claim mechanisms, and climate-related production risks. These findings suggest that further strengthening of AUTP’s implementation design is necessary to achieve effective farmer protection.

Abstract

Following the entry into force of the RCEP, trade in agricultural products and specialty foods between China and ASEAN has grown, highlighting the role of geographical indications in enhancing quality reputation and market bargaining power. However, cross-border circulation also brings risks such as counterfeiting, free-riding on reputation, and squatting. Existing legal protections struggle to match the risks brought by trade expansion. This paper employs qualitative analysis, comparative analysis, and rule interpretation methodologies. From the perspective of integrating the RCEP framework with China's domestic institutional practices, it proposes advancing procedural alignment and directory-based mutual recognition based on the premise of unified expression through rights information packages. By refining conflict resolution rules and establishing coordinated enforcement mechanisms, it aims to forge an enforceable and sustainable path for regional cooperation.
